This is my fourth visit to Canada and my third to the great noun West. 1 was in Winnipeg eight years ago and again four years asked As n the Oversea colonies in which he was so much interested when visiting the Eity eight years ago. A Coral al ooh said was anxious to form a Colony Here and i went to a great Deal of expense in sending three men out to Lonk the . And in fact i had negotiations on foot for a Large tract in the in Monion District. I was willing that t Laie to pc Mac 2n.ouo . Bring out i 1 1 or of Tho class of settlers you peasant Farmers the class that ii uni Vixen foundation of King land s greatness but your and myself did not see Eye to Eye in the i think there was an elec Tion pending at the time Anu some out cry As to the class of people we Koukl bring out and so the fell through. Yes we Oversea colonies several in Autralia and 1 have Jum Pun Huhn i arms additional in oni Australia. Have Throe farm also in South Africa one run Nutly pure a wed near Natal to which the govt rement and generally have most liberally. Have a Small on-.1 also near c ape town in the late Cecil gave and a Small 6ne a Rhodesia. Cecil Rhoes a great in Rev work and promised All the land and All the assistance be could give if we a Cidad in Large colonies in Uhn Docsia. T think we have Doc id a that Kli Odesia will be suitable for colonizing set nes of this kind. The Colony scheme. To my Way of. Thinking Tho very class of people you want out Here Are the class it have to of for. As have said peasant Farmers men who have been used to the land and Lovo it. It is no use t tiling the so pro i o tha they can acres of for no Hiag Liat Gnu ice Lioy do with it they Are not annuals to live in a Hole in the ground but Tako them and give then a san qty say Thorn t Nis is not much hut it is a place to cat and sleep in give them a cow and enough ground to raise Fuji Sciont food on for themselves and their families and say to them now will stand behind you until you get started you must work on your land and for neigh Boring Farmers but to will see you through and then you must in the end Back what you have Insl. Thar is the thing to do. To have a Colony in Colorado where we bought acres and the people put. Upon it have not Only maintained them selves but they have already repaid All that it Cost to them going. These were not people from Over seas but the waste of same of tin1 Gren t cities. After All. That is what the army is asking to do to re claim the waste and make it use Ful to god and Man and if it was Only for the Money they win save your country the army should have a Chan be t o go ahead. To h r n i firs t bought the land for my farm Colony at the Mouth of the thames there was a cry of of you Are going to dump refuse of the cities upon us but i had bought the in my and we went. Ahead. Since then acres of land have been sold in that District for building purposes and the land that i bought for the army at an acre would sell to Day for an acre. We have a great City al ready we have a railway station be ing erected for us. The men and women who went there would otherwise have been waste. Thinks it a Good idea. My present visit has no special reference to colonization in a tiers but t am still open to a proposition of this kind and i believe it would be one of the Best things for your country even if we did nothing but reclaim the of your own cities. Why in to Ronto last year the army took men from the prisons and got them and started them right and is watching Over them and they Are All doing Well. Is not that a saving to Tho country then we look after the women and the illegitimate. In one of our Homes in Toronto to Day there arc 27 of these children. It is very naughty for them to exist of course but it is surely better that they should oct rescued from a life of vice and debauchery and if you save the child., in nine cases out of ten you save the Mother commissioner Eva Booth who a com pained her father West stated to a free press representative that he was bearing the journey and the fatigue of Many meetings in a most remark Able manner.
